HENRY WATTERsoN Is usually able'
when dire city challenged, to give rea-
son for the democratic hope that is
in him. Answering to the charge that
by his anti-administratio course he had
placed himself outside the pale OF the
democratic party, Henry says-"We
merely prefer the democratic party to
the administration, wanting nothing of
either" For gentlemanly slap in the
face that answer will readily pass mus
ter.

The prophecy made by q sister city,
that unless San Antonio takes some
steps to remove her filth, and give the
city proper sewerage, her claim as a
health resort will be changed to that Of a
death resort, is too nearly true to be con-
tepplated with any particular compla-
cency. Give us sewerage, gentlemen OF
the council, or you compel us to accept
death.

senate Is natul ally laid upon the judge

The report of the New York Financial
Chronicle on railroads and railroad earn
ings, does not tally with the statements
made by western journals, in railroad
interests, concerning the depressed con-
dition Of railroad business and the gen.
eral losses sustained by railway corpora
tions. The Chronicles report contains
statistics from ninety railroads, all
of which are making money and all save
three show an increase of 20 per cent
over net earnings of same period last
year. 1t will take more than press wind
TO convince people that the railroads are
losing money, and at the same time
doubling the vslues of their property
and paying dividends on vast ocean Of
watered stocks. This sympathy lie a
pure waste Of the raw material. SO far
as the present condition Of railroad
properties is concerned. They are able
to care for their own interests.

The religious statistics OF the cities OF
Texas are not particularly encouraging
e. the sabbathar!Hns. The question 81
caurch-gOIng. not TO say religion, is very
largely matter OF climate. Where the
a mUsphere Is congeuisl and the sur
rOundiugS conducive to out door enjoy
ments and recreations, there will be
comparatively little church-going among
thr people. Where the alternative Is
home with solitude or the Sunday pew,
the pew is in much greater demand
This is the real reason why the jewellers.
in rural communities are generally
church. goers. TO them going to church
is the most convenient recreation that
offers; therefore they go to church. In
tue cities this is not so, and there the
great majority do not attend church. In
Texas, outdoor reorestions are admis'
sIble the year round, and in Texas the
per cent. of church .goers is much less
than In colder ATTITUDES. Piety is really
more matter of climate, at least out
ward piety, than 1t is generally oonsid-

 It will not be long before the polo season will be here. There is already much enthu- siasm manifested over polo in this city, and the probability is that Connecticut will be as lively this winter as last in this respect. It is pretty we'll understood that the Conneeti- cut league will be made up of the same teams as last season. As the New Ravens came in first in the race last season, they will have to work hard this season in order to still keep their prestige.
 On the whole, the prospects for success full season are very dattering. It is expected that many new admirers of the sport will be won.
 w. M. Harris will manage the Bridgeport team, having bought the franchise of Robert Weber. Some of the teams are as follows: Bridgeport-W. A. Rogers, W. P. Parsons, c. E. Beesop, C.C.
